What are some of the tricks of making the HK system really pop for EDM music. I mostly listened to 70% EDM and 30% rock/metal. I'm guessing i need to cut the lower end on the EQ (100hz) by quite a bit? I've messed around with the setting, but i would like to see how everyone are setting theirs up. Thanks for the help and advice!

I did that at first, but then for fun I went back to L7. If you listen to it for a while you'll hear some cool effects on some songs. It definitely emphasizes the upper frequencies, hence my EQ adjustments.

I am very particular about my audio... my home set up is rather nice (McIntosh, B&W, etc).

Here are the settings that work the best for me. It definitely tames the high end/treble and keeps the bass from being boomy. With these settings, you should be able to turn it up with your ears bleeding, or experiencing too much distortion from the bass frequencies.

Interestingly, my settings aren't too far off from member Sirrus

Is there a reason why your balance is more right than center?

Oh yeah, turn L7 off unless you want your centre speaker to work overtime. Better off without it IMO.

Haha ok, thank you! Yea i've been listening with L7 off but will try it on for a day or two.

Because sitting in the driver's seat, your much closer to the speakers on the left. Boosting the right side of the car will help the imaging. You ca test this by listening to some solo vocals. Move the balance until the singer is right in front of you, then you'll know it's locked in.

I only listen to EDM. I use something very similar to this and i am a huge fan of itAttachment 815306

I have to try this setting..all I listen to as well and I went crazy raising a lot of them all the way up but you hear like a digital tone at high setting with the volume high so I have to change it and going to try your setting.
